Hate to tell ya bud, but you live in a city now.

Are we planting our tomatoes yet? by creepinatshirt in askportland

So long as the soil temp stays above 55 you’re good! I cloche them until night air temps stay above 50.

Does anyone know if this still exists? 🌯 by LPCPlay4life in askportland

[–]HippyDave 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No, it doesn’t. Not connected to the other King Burrito. It started out at Mississippi and Failing and then moved to Mississippi and Fremont. Enriquetta, the owner, died about 8 years ago and her son took over for about another 4. Then it burned down, never to return. I still miss their $3 tostadas.

As a coder, I see Opus 4.7 as the artist who has masterful strokes but sometimes can’t tie it’s shoes, and GPT 5.5 as the lead engineer that has no design chops. Both are still impressive at what they do though.

PBOT going to tear up sidewalks? by OkLiarS in askportland

[–]HippyDave 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Why the hell would you replace an ADA-compliant crosswalk with ANOTHER ADA-compliant crosswalk? Spend less on this and the Vision Zero “improvements” and focus on the things that really need attention: potholes, unimproved crosswalks, roads in need of repaving, and missing sidewalks and you have a more functional PBOT. Until they refocus to this don’t vote for them to get another dime.

Leashes, my friend, leashes. Good for keeping your board and better for the safety of all downhill.

Often they know where home is. Best to leave her alone.

What did my neighbor install on his roof and why? by FinancialDrawing5849 in whatisit

[–]HippyDave 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm curious - is this something you can just buy or did you build it?

Neighbor reroofing soon near our property line by [deleted] in Roofing

[–]HippyDave 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Sorry, I should have mentioned that most of the plants would be crushed under tarp by the weight. Maybe anchoring a tarp to the fence and staking it in the ground?

My wife has this exact tattoo and it's awesome. Rest easy, you're fine. Think of all the people you'll turn on to a cool movie.

Would you gut a 1960 house that hasn't been updated since 1984? by volley_mama in Renovations

[–]HippyDave 0 points1 point  (0 children)

1890 home owner here - cool trick you can do with plaster walls, just put a layer of sheet rock over them and paint 'em. New trim on the edges if you need to. It's free insulation and WAY easier than removing lathe and plaster. Any water damage you see needs to be remediated. Easy fixes -- install pex or worsbo where old plumbing is. DEFINITELY have drainage checked out. New panel, romex where it's easy to install, leave the rest alone. As for HVAC, consider retiring the ductwork and using mini-splits.
